[Bug localedata/19720] pt_BR: missing AM/PM time indicators


https://sourceware.org/bugzilla/show_bug.cgi?id=19720

--- Comment #1 from Mike Frysinger <vapier at gentoo dot org> ---
the translation of am/pm is only for locales where using 12 hour clocks is
customary.  if systems tend to use 24 hour clocks everywhere (even if in
conversation you might colloquially say something relative like "1 in the
afternoon"), then the locale should omit the am/pm indicators.

a short search indicates that 24 hour clocks are common in Brazil which means
we want to omit them from pt_BR.
